In triangle $\triangle ABC$, $AB = 37, AC = 33$, and $BC = 39$.  A circle $\Gamma$ is drawn with center $A$ and radius $AC$.  Let $D$ be the point on $\Gamma$ that is furthest from $B$. What is the distance $BD$?

BD = 33 + 37

See here :

 

 

The  greatest  distance   is  just   BA + AD  =  BD  =  33 +  37   =  70
